Entered at Richmond, Ind., Postofflce As Second Class Mail Matter. RAILROAD NEWS. WILL NOT RECOGNIZE ROAD C, C. &. L. HAS BEEN THE CAUSE OF SEVERAL MIXUPS. Marlon and Other Points Besides Richmond Are Now Working for Freight Interchange. 'file C, C. & I. seems to have caused an awful mlxup in the usually well regulated railroad morals of the state since It was first opened for business a little over a year ago. It caused a rate war some time ago with itself, the Pennsylvania and the Big Four as tb principals, owing to the lowering off"the passenger raes between Chicago bbA Cincinnati, and now to get even do Pennsy and several other roads have refused to exchange freight with It. Recently the state railroad commission decided, after a fight of several months standing that the roads entering Richmond should exchange freight with the C, C & L., but as the decision was local the Pennsy and other roads at Marion and several other points outside of Richmond have renewed the fight and are continuing in their refusal to interchange traffic. As the result there is a big brawl brewing among the business men and manufacturers at Marlon and some interesting developments are anticipated. ENGINEER BARNES GOES EAST. , E. H. Barnes, chief engineer of the Grand Rapids andi Indiana road, and his family have gone east for several days. Mr. Barnes will look after some railway affairs while east. . -WM. L COLLINS DEAD. William Lafayette Collins, father of the Order of Railroad Conductors, died this ,. week, aged 83 years. He had been blind for many years and lost one of his arms, but in spite of his afflictions he was cheerful and patient to the end. In 1856 he conceived the idea of forming a conductors' brotherhood and his agitation of the subject led to the formation of the order in, 1868. He was grand treasurer for the grand division for two terms and in 1875 was elected grand chief of the order and was re-elected a second time. KEEPS BREAKING 'EM. The , Pennsylvania is constantly breaking records. Its August earnings gross and net exceeded all previously high figures, which doesn't sound much like the panic that some of the Pennsylvania officials predicted a few weeks ago. CHANGE IN SERVICE. The Pennsylvania has granted the Western Union telegraph company the control of the commercial telegraph lines formerly operated by the Grand Rapids and Indiana line. The Pennsylvania railroad came to an agreement with the Western Union many months ago that the Westedn should take over commercial lines along the Pennsylvania system. The Grand Rapids and Indiana is the last to fall under the control of the Western Un ion. STEEL RAILS COMMITTEE. Another meeting of the committee on steel rails of the American Rail way association will be held in New New York soon to complete the report on specifications for rails for 190S de livery. G. L. Peck, of Pittsburg, gen eral manager of the Pennsylvania lines west, is chairman of the committee. Following this meeting there will be a joint conference of railroad officials and representatives of steel rail manufacturers. It is expected that the committee at this gathering will be able to arrive at a satisfactory conclusion. It was said recently that many of the larger railroads are anxious to have this question settled, as they want to place orders for new rails to be delivered next year. It is stated, however, that no contracts will be awarded until the committee representing the association and the roanuTacturers agree as to the specifications. It was stated semiofficially Friday that the railroads do not object to the improvement types of rails proposed by the steel makers, but they do object to the higher prices to be asked for them. Heavier rails will naturally involve larger expenditures on the part of the railroads, but the Increased life of the heavier rail3, it is maintained by the manufacturers, will more than offset the additional cost. Final action on the subject of new types will be taken at a general meeting of the railroad and steel rail company representatives to be held some MASONIC CALENDAR.

Three Veteran Masons Here to Attend Funeral in Accordance With Agreement.

WAS MADE 25 YEARS AGO. MAJOR L. A. FOOTE, DANIEL Mc DONALD, MARTIN H. RICE AND CHRISTIAN FETTA WERE "BIG FOUR" OF INDIANA MASONRY. (Indianapolis Star.) Maj. L. A. Foote of Crawfordsville, Representative Daniel McDonald of Plymouth and Martin II. Rice of Indianapolis, three veteran Masons of Indiana, will go to Richmond this morning to fulfill a promise they made to a friend twenty-five years ago. Foote and McDonald were at the Occidental Hotel last night. For years Christian Fetta, who is dead at Richmond, with Foote, McDonald and Rice, formed what is known among Masons as "the big four." All were past grand masters of the order. Martin H. Rice is the oldest past grand master now living in Indiana. Christian Fetta came next and Foote was the third of the quartet. McDonald, who became grand master in 1875, was the fourth. "Many years ago we four men made an agreement that each should attend the other's funeral," said Maj. Foote last night. "And I am here to keep that agreement," said McDonald. "That is my business here," said Foote. Last night Foote, McDonald and Rice met at the Occidental Hotel and talked over the old days of Masonry. Maj. Foote has been a Mason since 1849. McDonald went into the order in 1SC1, when the membership in Indiana numbered about 28,000. "For years," said Maj. Foote, "this 'big four' crowd stood alone. Men who were grand masters before us died and were buried. Others who had been grand masters after our administration passed away. But our quartet remained unbroken. Christian Fetta is the first to require the keeping of the pledge we made long ago." PROGRAM FOR W. H. F. M. S. Meeting Will be Held at Hagerstown October 9. Hagerstown, Ind., Oct. 4.

BURY THE HATCHET; WILL BE FOB BRYAN Illinois Democrats Will Give Him a Solid Delegation in National Convention. SULLIVAN IS WITH THEM. BREAK BETWEEN THE NATIONAL COMMITTEEMAN AND GREAT COMMONER SEEMS TO HAVE PATCHED OVER. Springfield, 111., Oct. 4 The Democratic factions in Illinois buried the hatchet and agreed to give W. J. Bryan the solid Illinois delegation in the next Democratic national convention. Representatives of all the factions were here at a love feast. Above them all loomed Roger Sullivan, the man whose resignation from the Dem-. ocratic national committee Mr. Bryan demanded just before returning from his globe-encircling tour. Mr. Bryan seems to have changed his mind about Sullivan for the big corporation man is for Bryan. There's No Fight on Bryan. Charles Boeschenstein, chairman of the state committee, summed up the situation as he stood beside Sullivan in the lobby of the St. Nicholas, where the Democrats had gathered in large numbers. "There is no opposition to Bryan in Illinois," said Mr. Boeschenstein. "Some persons, perhaps, would like it to appear that there is a fight so that they might profit by the resultant confusion and ride into power on Mr. Bryan's popularity. But there will be harmony in the convention." Lawrence B. Stringer of Lincoln, 111., who was the Democratic candidate for Governor four years ago, predicted the national convention would nominate Bryan by acclamation, but the signifi cant feature of the love feast was the development that Roger Sullivan will not oppose Bryan's nomination. Bryan Has Turn Colors. Sullivan is a type of the men Bryan has loved to denounce as an exponent of the corporations and an enemy of the people. He demanded Sullivan's resignation from the national committee, intimating he would not accept Illinois support otherwise. Mr. Bryan's anticipathy to Sullivan seems to have faded. Carter H. Harrison is back in Chicago to enter politics. Incidentally he declared himself as favoring Bryan for President and J. Ham Lewis for Governor. PUPILS VISITED AT EARLHAM.

to PLAN PROVES A SUCCESS. PASSAGE OF NEW LAWS IS BUT HALF THE BATTLE AS THEIR SPIRIT IS YET TO BE WROUGHT INTO THE PEOPLE. Fassett A. Cotton, State Superintendent of Public Instruction, has just issued the first of his series of winter bulletins to the schools of the State. This makes the fifth year that the bulletin system has been in use and the superintendent in the current issue calls attention to the advantages of the plan. "The aegree of success with which the bulletins have met," he writes, "is the justification for their continuance. The primary purpose has been to keep the department in close touch with the teachers of the State. This has been done and the department has constantly kept before the teachers its ideals, principles and policies. "The department has sought to exalt the calling and to attract to it the best men and women. It has always had the largest interest in and sympathy for beginners and has tried to encourage them and point them along correct pedagogical ways. It has attempted to make the work practical and to suggest concrete problems." Laws Only Half the Battle. Mr. Cotton also calls attention to the educational laws enacted by the last Legislature. "If the real spirit of these laws were realized," says the bulletin, "the school system of Indiana would deserve to rank with the best systems in the world. But the passage of the laws is at best but half the bat-! tie. The spirit of the laws must be wrought in the people and in the schools. The weakness of the laws must be found and must be eradicated." The bulletin makes special mention of the law providing for the centralization of schools, which already has caused some discussion in different parts of the State. "The law providing for centralization," says the bulletin, "may be made effective in the highest sense or it may become a dead letter. If selfishness and narrowness and lack of foresight are to prevail, then no step forward can be taken. If the needs of the children and the desire to make opportunity equal for town and country are to determine, then the next decade may witness tremendous educational progress. So this is no time to sleep. Indiana expects every teacher and every citizen to do his duty." Mr. Cotton makes a special plea for activity on the part of the teacher. Along this line the bulletin says: "The law creating a system of training schools In the state exalts professional work and makes it a part of the teachers' preparation. But this, too, Distress After Eating Do You Ever Feel as Though You Had Swallowed a Brick Instead of a Meal? That heavy, bloated, stuffed-up, which you often ex lead-like feeling, perience after eating a meal, is positive proof that something is wrong with your digestive organs. They are becoming weak and fagged out. There is a lack of gastric and other digestive juices. The food is no longer properly digested and it forms a heavy load on your stomach, so that nearly every meal causes you misery and distress. If you are in this condition, it means that you have dyspepsia in some form and may have had it for some time, though you didn't realize it. Now Is the time to check it, for if you don't it will surely develope into worse forms of dyspepsia and other stomach troubles, which may have serious results. But that is not all. The stomach is the hub of the body and an Inj.ury to this Is an injury to all. A weak stomach causes the whole body to suffer. The action of the heart, liver and kidneys becomes sluggish. The brain becomes inactive. The nerves become tinstrung. The blood loses Its vitality. The only safe, sure, scientific method of restoring your stomach to Its healthy, normal state, is to use Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, which will act as a substitute in digesting your food, thus giving your stomach a much needed rest. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets have stood the tests for years. Thousands have used them and been cured. Physicians all over the United States recommend them. They are not a secret remedy. They contain fruit, and vegetable essences, pure concentrated tincture of hydrastis. golden seal, lactose, and pure aseptic pepsin. These combined ingredients will digest the coarsest kind of food ard do the work just as well as any good, strong, healthy stomach will. Don't take our word for It. Ask your physician, your druggist or any , of your friends, who may have used Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. But you don't even have to take their word for it. Find out for yourself. Send for a free sample package and try them. That's the surest way to learn the truth. Then, if you are satisfied, yon can go to your nearest druggist and get a fifty-cent box. All druggists sell them. Write for a free sample today. Address F. A. Stuart Co., 150 Stuart 14.. Marshall. Mich.

must be carried out in the right spirit if any real progress is to be made.

Schools that are 'accredited' must pro-! vide the very best equipment, in the way of buildings, libraries, training schools and professionally-trained experts as teachers. The law makes the State Normal School the center and the standard of the system, and no backward step must be taken. The spirit of these laws looks toward better teachers, and this spirit must be kept alive. The system must not deterioriate into a machine. Must Never Become Perfunctory. Teaching must never become perr functory. Individuality in the teach-'

the school will forever depend upon the teacher's power of initiative. And so these schools must all have sound scholarship and practical pedagogy. The plan outlined by the law can exalt teaching and make it a real profession or it can cheapen the calling and make it ridiculous. It depends upon the school officials of the state as to which it shall be. If eternal vigilance as to quality of work is exercised there can be no doubt of the outcome." According to the bulletin the course of study will receive more attention in the township institutes this year than ever before. Mr. Cotton believes that one of the lamentable facts about school work is that many teachers do not understand the aim of their work and are not thoroughly acquainted with the course of study. MRS. GEO. SANDERS SURPRISED. Greensfork, Ind., Oct. 4. Monday being the occasion of Mrs. George Sanders birthday several of her friends and neighbors planned a surprise.
